Cineverse has collaborated with LG Channels to introduce Historian, a new free ad-supported streaming television (FAST) channel from American Public Television. This channel, offering a range of history-based programming, debuted on Sept. 10 on LG Channels, LG’s exclusive free streaming service.
Historian is the latest FAST channel launched in partnership with Cineverse and APT, following the success of The Bob Ross Channel. Viewers can enjoy a lineup of insightful documentaries on various topics like war, art, politics, sports, pop culture, and travel, providing a journey through time with fresh perspectives.
The channel features a catalog including the ‘World War II Collection’, ‘Rick Steves’ Special: Fascism in Europe’, ‘Curious Traveler’, ‘Behind the Wings’, ‘A Craftsman’s Legacy’, and many award-winning series and documentaries. This launch expands Cineverse’s collaboration with LG Channels, known for the Yu-Gi-Oh! FAST channel, offering nearly 400 hours of episodes from the popular anime series.
Other Cineverse streaming brands available on LG Channels include The Bob Ross Channel, Dog Whisperer with Cesar Millan, Dove Channel, The Lone Star Channel, Real Madrid TV, and SCREAMBOX TV. LG Channels, with over 400 channels and growing, provides a wide selection of premium live and on-demand content, accessible on LG smart TV models from 2016 onwards, as well as on iOS and Android mobile devices.
John Stack, Cineverse’s executive director of business development, expressed excitement about the partnership with LG, making LG Channels the first platform to carry the Historian FAST channel. Judy Barlow, American Public Television’s executive vice president of growth, highlighted the popularity of their history collection, leading to the creation of this new history-themed FAST channel in collaboration with Cineverse.
